[QUOTE="Cole, post: 197966, member: 9507"] The issue isn't how hard we work compared to other Teamsters etc...because most all of us work hard for our money. I try to judge anothers work etc...until I have walked in their shoes. Alot of people used to and probably still do think we mainly ride around waving at people. As far as the APWA, I don't personally think they have an ulterior motive, as in selling people out or anything, but sure they do in that they want to get better pensions and benefits to our members. Face it not everyone is pleased with the representation they have received from the Teamsters, and yes sometimes it is because of lack of involvement, or because sometimes it seems hopeless to change things on the grand scale etc... There are cases where change has been made for the better, like local 705, from what I have read had problems in the past, but now have things going in the right direction from what our brother 705red has said, and also from what I read online etc...and that's no small potatoes, because 705 is one of the largest Teamster locals in the US. I say that because if the APWA doesn't win out, we will need to look to locals that have turned things around and 705 is a good example of where to start researching. [/QUOTE]
